Character name: Poseidon
Series: Olympos
Age: Immortal, looks around his 30s
Job: Vocal Coach
Canon: Olympos is a story involving Greek Gods that starts off with a young man who is praying for his wish to be granted. In comes Apollo, a God who says he'll grant this wish, should the young man successfully complete the task of getting a recluse to go to the end of the world... but wait a second, that's not the only God! We're talking about Greek mythology here, and there happens to be a couple other Gods involved in the story as well. One of them happens to be Poseidon, the God of the sea.
Poseidon is usually the one annoyed with how Apollo doesn't take being a God seriously. Then again, Apollo thinks he's a moron, but that's probably because Poseidon thinks a whole lot differently from him; Gods need to act like Gods. Unlike him, Poseidon is never out to deliberately torment and assault humans. In fact, he takes his role seriously... except for when he's playing harmless pranks on humans for the lulz. He can be summed up as blunt, loud ("LISTEN UP! IT'S GOD!"), surrounded by an air of confidence, and whimsical. Oh, and let's not forget he has a thing for really big temples.
Sample Entry:
Vocal lessons? That's what you called me here for? It's a good idea, your people do need something like that... but all I've heard you say so far is "braaains". Besides, singing isn't an area of my expertise. However, since I'm already here, we can improvise. How about I teach you how to yell instead? Hm. Know what, that's just what I'll do! Teach you how to yell!
First off: having a sea would help to give me encouragement, but it looks like you don't have one. That's a big disappointment. I guess that'll be okay. Any old large body of water will have to make do for now. It's a shame this place is landlocked; it's not suitable, considering it's bare of--don't interrupt me! It's inconsiderate to stop a God in his trail of thought!
This can't be a lake. Have you looked closely at the water? The sea I'm used to is not this thick and pink. It never glowed like this! It can't even be safe. Look, I understand that you want those lessons, and I can't blame you, but this--fine. I'll just make do with this since I'm already here. I'm a God, after all, I can make this "lake" of yours work! Here's a warm-up. First, you'll want to inhale deeply. Careful, don't somehow hurt yourself like that guy over there. Continuing now! You need to be able to feel your lungs filling with air and, right when you feel that burn in your chest, yell with all your might; like this!
BRAINS!!
Hahahaha! None of you are even on your feet anymore! It's too bad you guys won't come close to doing anything as incredible as that. Then again, that's for the best... What's this, an offering? It's generous, but I don't need your leg. In fact, I don't even know what I could do with a leg as... it's falling apart! Keep it, I honestly don't know what I could do with something like that.
Now, you know that even with my teaching you'll never come close to doing as well as that, right? It's practically impossible. Instead, why don't you put your time into something meaningful? I'm saying that if you guys want me to stay at this "camp" so badly, you'll have to fill my one request:
Build me a temple. A big one.
